A method and system for determining amplitude and phase compensation values used to adjust the amplitude and phase characteristics of real and imaginary signal components of complex signals processed by an analog radio transmitter. The compensation values may be determined in response to detecting a significant temperature change in the transmitter. Corresponding amplitude and phase adjustment signals having levels that correspond to the compensation values are provided to respective amplitude and phase imbalance compensation modules to adjust the amplitude and phase characteristics of at least one of the real and imaginary signal components.
